“Phivolcs strongly recommends that entry into TVI, Taal’s permanent danger zone or PDZ, especially the vicinities of the main crater and the Daang Kastila fissure, must remain strictly prohibited,” it said. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) on Friday, Aug. 12, said the Taal Volcano in Batangas had spewed a “voluminous” plume that reached 2,800 meters or 2.8 kilometers high in the past 24 hours. Under Alert Level 1, sudden steam-driven or phreatic explosions, volcanic earthquakes, minor ashfall and lethal accumulations or expulsions of volcanic gas can occur and threaten areas within the Taal Volcano Island (TVI).

PHIVOLCS prohibited the entry into Taal Volcano Island or the permanent danger zone, especially the main crater and Daang Kastila fissures as well as occupancy and boating on Taal Lake. PHIVOLCS also observed a slight inflation of Taal Volcano Island and Western Taal Caldera, and a deflation of Eastern Taal Caldera. Five volcanic tremors and a low-level background tremor were recorded in Taal Volcano in the last 24 hours, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) said on Friday.

A total of 13572 tons per day of sulfur dioxide from Taal Volcano is recorded on Thursday, August 11, producing 'significant' volcanic smog.

In addition to vog, acid rain “can be generated during periods of rainfall and volcanic gas emission over areas where the plume disperses,” Phivolcs warned. Phivolcs also said degassing has increased since the start of August, as seen in the upwelling of volcanic fluids in the Main Crater Lake and the “voluminous” steam-rich plumes. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said on Friday, August 12, that a total of 13,572 tons per day of SO2 had been recorded on Thursday.

Under Alert Level 1, the volcano is observed to exhibit hydrothermal, magmatic, or tectonic disturbances, with prohibited entry into the permanent danger zone. While this is the second time the Taal Volcano has exhibited any activity this year, it remains under Alert Level 1 for its abnormal condition, as any “pronounced change in monitored parameters” would have to be determined before raising it to Alert Level 2. Phivolcs confirmed that the Taal Volcano spewed a voluminous plume about 2.8 kilometers high in the past 24 hours.

Vog consists of droplets containing volcanic gas such as sulfur dioxide which is acidic and can cause “irritation of the eyes, throat, and respiratory tract in severities depending on the gas concentrations and durations of exposure,” PHIVOLCS earlier said. The upwelling of hot volcanic liquids in the main crater lake of Taal Volcano in Batangas continues, and six volcanic tremors were recorded in the past 24 hours, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) said on Saturday. PHIVOLCS also said the volcano emitted 13,572 tonnes of sulfur dioxide on August 11.

Under Alert Level 1, sudden steam-driven or phreatic explosions, volcanic earthquakes, minor ashfall and lethal accumulations or expulsions of volcanic gas can occur and threaten areas within the Taal Volcano Island (TVI). The upwelling of hot volcanic fluids also continued, causing volcanic smog or “vog” over the Taal Volcano and neighboring communities. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) on Saturday, Aug. 13 said that Taal Volcano had generated six volcanic tremors and a 3,000-meter tall plume in the past 24 hours.
